We all enjoyed the amazing run by Bend South Little League in the Little League World Series, where they won the 2011 State Championship and made it to the final game of the Regional Championships. So here is their roster, now we’ll have to watch and see what they accomplish from here. I know that most of them are multi-sport athletes. I’d imagine that playing on the big stage that they did will help them in whatever sports they choose to play. I’ve had a few of these kids in my tennis classes and I can tell you that Cameron Baker is going to be a stud basketball player. This is going to be fun for use to watch them grow up from here!
